It just feels like it should be Friday tomorrow. Sorry about the stuff at work. But the most important part of your life is at home and that sounds good. I also like wearing clothes until they fall apart. I feel as I'd I have failed if stuff is still in good enough shape for the charity shop when I have finished with it.
Take care,

I loved this. Part of my new frugal self is to join you in actually wearing clothes out (or admit I dont like them and shouldn't have bought them and ebay them while they are still new enough to fetch a sensible sum!)Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -
Well done on the TillyTidies, I seem to be always catching up with my finances so end up doing one big re-jiggle at the end of the month when the salary comes in only, it's very boring!
Come on Friday....Mortgage Apr 18 £417,894 BTL Mar 18 £162,857
Mortgage now -- £350,085 BTL now --- £162,6680
